A creative practice forged by travel, intrigue, and a love of everyday beauty.
Liz Kavanagh Design studio creates interiors guided by intuition, honesty and a keen eye for detail. Her aesthetic is defined by warmth, natural elements, and careful consideration. Relaxed yet refined.
Curiosity saw Liz spend over a decade living in Italy and later a year in Japan, immersing herself in the craftsmanship and philosophy of two of the world’s most influential design cultures. Shaped by slow travel and a desire to live and learn, not just visit, her work carries a culturally rich perspective and a deep appreciation for quality, authenticity, and the quiet poetry of daily life.
For Liz, great design begins with an understanding of how people live. How they move through their homes, start their mornings, and gather at the end of the day. Now based in Sydney, LKD is known for its integrity, clear communication, and an ability to craft interiors that reflect each client’s individuality and way of life. With a deep respect for architecture, LKD collaborates on projects where values align — across Australia and beyond.
Much like music, design is about rhythm, balance, and pause — knowing when to add, and when to let something breathe. Liz listens to her clients, to the space, to the subtle cues of how life unfolds — creating homes that move with you and support the moments that make life meaningful.
